Intelligence and Intelligence TestingJohn Hattie, University of Auckland, and Richard B. Fletcher, Massey University, New Zealand.This book examines the controversial psychological construct that is IQ, discussing and reviewing the history and current status of the research on intelligence and providing an overview of its development, measurement and use. From Galton, Spearman and Binet to the relatively recent controversy caused by the research of Herrnstein and Murray, this important book makes a major claim about the importance today of ‘problem solving on demand’ as one of the key components of today’s notions of intelligence. It will be invaluable for all students studying the theory of intelligence and the impact of testing on educational and other outcomes.


The Irregular SchoolExclusion, Schooling and Inclusive EducationRoger Slee, University of London, UK.Is the regular school or the special school or both the solution for educating students with a wide range of differences? The Irregular School explores the foundations of the current controversies and argues that continuing to think in terms of the regular school or the special school obstructs progress towards inclusive education. The book contends that we need to build a better understanding of exclusion, of the foundations of the division between special and regular education, and of school reform as a precondition for more inclusive schooling in the future.

John Hattie to lead Melbourne Education Research Institute

The University of Melbourne’s Graduate School of Education (MGSE) has appointed Professor John Hattie as Director of its research institute.

Professor Hattie’s work is internationally acclaimed. His influential 2008 book Visible Learning: A Synthesis of Over 800 Meta-Analyses Relating to Achievement is believed to be the world’s largest evidence-based study into what factors improve student outcomes.

Involving more than 80 million students from around the world and bringing together 50,000 smaller studies, the study found positive teacher-student interaction is the most important factor in effective teaching.

Currently a member of the Faculty of Education and Director of Visible Learning Labs at The University of Auckland, Professor Hattie regularly advises governments in New Zealand, Australia and the US.

Having authored or co-authored 12 books and over 500 papers, Professor Hattie says he is looking forward to supporting researchers in MGSE.

Being a UniversityRonald Barnett, University of London, UK.There is no single idea of the university. Ever since its medieval origin, the concept of the university has continued to change. The metaphysical university gave way successively to the scientific university, and then to the corporate and the entrepreneurial university. But what, then, might lie ahead? Being a University both charts this conceptual development and examines the future possibilities for the idea of the university. Ronald Barnett pursues this quest through an exploration of pairs of contending concepts that speak to the idea of the university - such as space and time; being and becoming; and culture and anarchy.

Understanding and Treating Dissociative Identity DisorderA Relational ApproachElizabeth Howell, International Society for the Study of Dissociation.Building on the comprehensive theoretical model of dissociation elegantly developed in The Dissociative Mind, Elizabeth Howell makes another invaluable contribution to the clinical understanding of dissociative states with this book. Howell explicates a multifaceted approach to the treatment of this fascinating yet often misunderstood condition, which involves the partitioning of the personality into part-selves that remain unaware of one another, usually the result of severely traumatic experiences.

Seeing and Being SeenEmerging from a Psychic RetreatJohn Steiner, British Psychoanalytical Society.This book examines the themes that surface when considering clinical situations where patients feel stuck and where a failure to develop impedes the progress of analysis. This book analyses the anxieties and challenges confronted by patients as they begin to emerge from the protection of psychic retreats. As well as offering fresh ideas, Steiner bases his creative and integrative efforts on previous contributions by psychoanalysts including Freud, Klein, Rosenfeld and Bion. As such, this book will be of interest to psychoanalysts, clinical psychotherapists and all those with an interest in the psychoanalytic field.

Intersubjective Processes and the UnconsciousAn Integration of Freudian, Kleinian and Bionian PerspectivesLawrence J. Brown, Massachusetts Institute for Psychoanalysis.This book looks at how the minds of the therapist and the patient interact with each other in a profound and unconscious way: a concept first described by Freud. This book expands Freud’s ideas further and examines how these have been greatly elaborated by contributions from the Kleinian School as well as from the work of Bion. It explores how, together, patient and therapist co-create a narrative through these unconscious intersubjective processes.

From Classical to Contemporary PsychoanalysisA Critique and IntegrationMorris Eagle, Adelphi University.The landscape of psychoanalysis has changed, at times dramatically, in the hundred or so years since Freud first began to think and write about it. To help make sense of it all, Morris Eagle sets out to critically reevaluate fundamental psychoanalytic concepts of theory and practice in a topical manner. Beginning at the beginning, he reintroduces Freud’s ideas in chapters on the mind, object relations, psychopathology, and treatment; he then approaches the same topics in terms of more contemporary psychoanalytic schools.

Between Winnicott and LacanA Clinical EngagementLewis Kirshner, Boston Psychoanalytic Institute, USAD. W. Winnicott and Jacques Lacan, two of the most innovative and important psychoanalytic theorists since Freud, are also seemingly the most incompatible. The possibility of working between their contrasting perspectives on a central issue for psychoanalysis is explored in this book. Their differences are critically evaluated, with an eye toward constructing a more effective psychoanalytic practice that takes both relational and structural-linguistic aspects of subjectivity into account. The book addresses the Winnicott-Lacan relationship itself and the evolution of their ideas, and provides detailed examples of how they have been utilized in psychoanalytic work with patients.

Why We See What We Do ReduxA Wholly Empirical Theory of VisionDale Purves, Duke University, and R. Beau Lotto, University College London.The first edition of this provocative book reviewed a broad range of evidence leading to the conclusion that the visual system does not reveal the physical world by an analysis of retinal images and their representation by the visual system. Rather, what we see is based on the history of the species and the individual as a means of contending with the inherent uncertainty of light stimuli. This refinement and expansion of the argument in the first edition, supported with much new evidence gathered over the last seven years, has far-reaching consequences not only for understanding vision but brain function generally.

Cell Biology of BacteriaLucy Shapiro, Stanford University, and Richard M. Losick, Harvard University.Often thought to lack significant internal organization by comparison with eukaryotic cells, prokaryotes have in fact been shown to possess distinct intracellular compartments. Moreover, they also have cytoskeletal filaments reminiscent of those in higher organisms. Recent work has significantly extended our understanding of these features of prokaryotic cells and their roles in control of cell division, morphogenesis, and other processes. The book covers all aspects of prokaryotic cell biology, including the bacterial cytoskeleton, membrane organization, chromosome dynamics, nucleic acid processing and dynamics, as well as various methods.

Aboriginal Customary LawA Source of Common Law Title to LandUlla Secher, James Cook University, Australia.Aboriginal Customary Law remedies a deficiency which presently impedes the study of Aboriginal land rights: there is no comprehensive work addressing the potential legal consequences for Aboriginal rights to land, beyond recognition of native title, ensuing from acknowledgement of the Crown’s radical title. Two interwoven theses are propounded: the first is the applicability, in the context of inhabited settled colonies, of a modified doctrine of reception. The second is that, contrary to the received view, the Crown’s radical title does not automatically confer full beneficial ownership of unalienated land in Australia where such land is not subject to native title.
